I suspect I have an anxiety disorder as well as schizophrenia. I am always anxious, and I do have minor visual psuedohallucinations which sometimes I cannot recognize and call 'hallucinations' However I visit a psychiatrist and I am in treatment for my mental disorders. I haven't been told of my diagnosis because of two things most probably
1) It will affect my performance in everything
2) I am too young and probably not yet diagnosed with comorbidity that could actually be a game-changer. I will turn 18 this 21st.
But when I was fifteen, my psychiatrist did tell me I have "psychosis." It's very vague cause psychosis can both be triggered and permanent. And I wouldn't die to know my diagnosis, and therapists are very less in numbers here in our country.
